Bar Room PrOspeetOrs.

There are in all communities, not ex- cepting our town, class of persons who, for want of better term. may be classeG as bar room prospectors-they are of all shades and opinions, and may be found principally sitting around a stove in some bar-room, where they do all their propectIng (for free driDks) and are wont to relate their wonderful exploits m mining. and how rich they might have been if they had only taken up the "HOg eye" or some other equal ly rich quartz lode. A successful miner or proepector they despise, for having failed of making a success of anything for want of capacity, they are always willing to throw cold water on those who, by their own efforts or by the as sistance of outside capital, are trying to keep the grass from growing in the streets of their town. These would De quartz sharps who examine rock through bar-rOom tumbler st some bOdy's else expense, and ever alert to catch or button-hole those who may have been sent up to examine some mining property.

The Female Book Agent.

The latest dodge of the female book agent is to get room in fashionable boarding house, pay two weeks rent in advance, move in her stock of books and sell them to the bOarders without letting them know who she is. When asked for references she brings out a letter from the publisher for whom she works or his local agent. A New York bOasding house keeper tells how she discovered an agent in beautiful widow who was stopping with her: ''On Sunday the widow came int. the parlor with her arms full of illus trated books of history and portfolios of engravingS. She had thought some of us might like to look over her collection, : she said, and of course we did not object, although I commenced to think my new lOdger was taking great deal of pains to please the comparative strangers. looked over some of them myself and listened to her explain that they were from colleo- ton of a dear friend. who had asked her to take them to a second hand store the next day and sell them.
 ''All of a sudden it struck me as quite peculiar that every one of those Looks was new, and had been published recently. Moreover, they were all published by one man, and that one man was the gentle man who had sent me such a warm com mendatiOn of my new boarder. shut up the book l was looking at, and began to think and listen and watch. The widow by this time was surrounded by Q dozen Of my gentlemen bOarders and three or four ladies, and was discoursing on the merits of the books. In ten minutes she had sold book to every young man there; simply charmed the money out of them by the power of her beauty. She was so glad she said, to think that her dear friend would realize at least a portion of what the books were worth. ."-Chicago News.

The story goes that the fur runner has one section of Maine in which his appearance on fur buying trip is an event. About every body sells to him, and he hasn't made many mistakes in his buying He cultivates this section Hesaves his best jokes aud bis funniest stories for this locality. Hence his grip Is good and he don't want to lose it
 It was after a successful expedition ints this section recently that the fur runner fell s talking. Now, there is danger when s man falls a talking, and on this day in question the peltry king told yarns and talked about furs and how money could be made and lost in them Said be to the listeners: sWhy don't you save up some mice skinsi The market H biz on mice They are worth, femme sec they are worth about Sl0 a hundred and then he smiled complacently as e man spoke up and said: -B' gosh, Is that factl Well, now, you bet we cod get @ bushel on 'em in . week if we was a mind tor It was only just a sort of joke, and he went away forgetting to remove the impression
 Several months passed and be went back again, bargaining and buying. He had traded for a good many furs, when, in the course of the trade, the seller said: ~The boys has got lots of mice skins for you" The buyer looked wonderingly, and then up out of the past came the vision of bis previous in- iquity. They have, have theyr replied he. "Well, I don't know, exactly. Did say I'd take 'emi7 That's what you said" was the reply. Ten dollars a hundred, and the boys has about two hundred of 'em.n
 It was a sad fact. The industrious boys had fully that number of mice skins stretched on boards The buyer had to invent some thing and so be said that the market had dropped off over three-quarters since be was here before, and he ended by settling with the boys for s5 bill It would never have done to have declined them, for that might have spoiled the trade on more sizabls and more marketable pelts in that vicinity for ever-Lewiston Journal.

Vicious Timber Wolves.

We have iu northern Arizona an anomalous, vicious animal, known Rs the timber wolf. It is different from the gray timber wolf Of the eRst-a sort of a cross between that animal snd the buff-colored coyote of the plains. But 1t IS ss large as any wolf ever heard of. and s good deal wickeder m general make up. The cars come to sn 8brup; point, and elements of meanness are combined that Set him off, 10 some par ticulars, scarcely less favorRbly than the hyens.
 This. in a general way" said the speaker, who was W. H. Collins Gf Mar ble OsflOr, "There are many of them ID the woods and along the streams reach ing from Flagstaff nearly tO the Color ado river. but more of them are found north of the Atlantic & Pacific road than Hnyuhere else

Rare Collection of Autographs.

One of the rarest collections of auto graphs in this country is in the depart ment of staee, where the treaties and other communications from the crowned heads of Europe, since the Declaration of Inde- pendence, are preserved. When the Brit ish burned Washington, these treasures were packed in bags and carried out into the country. They now have a place in the magnificent library of the new de- partment of state. In addition to the handwriting of the Emperor Napoleon, the ill fated Marie AntOinette, crazy George III, Alexander of Russia and sev- eral Oriental sOvereigns, are many Ameri- can state papers. Prominent among these are the private papers of George Washing. ton and volume which relates entirely tC. the capture, trial and execution of Mai. Andre. There is the letter which that brave young man wrote to Gen. Washing ton the night before, as he says: II am to swing npon gibbet," and there is also Q letter from the traitor Benedict Arnold, who informs Gen. Washington that. hay ing the interest of his beloved country at heart, he can no longer serve in the Amer ican army. With these autographs are many valuable souvenirs of distinguished individuals, including the War sword of Gen. Jackson, which he broke in fit of passion and which was rudely mended by the camp blacksmith.-Ben: Perlay Poore In Boston Budget
